Re: How to get the MySQL Command-Line Tool to display Unicode properly?
Probably the dumbest suggestion yet, but have you tried "set names utf8" in the client?

How to get the MySQL Command-Line Tool to display Unicode properly?
Five months ago I posted the query shown below on StackOverflow. I got one reply which was not of much help. So I am trying again, hoping a more MySQL-centric forum might be able to solve my problem. Roger House How to get the MySQL Command-Line Tool to display Unicode properly? I use a Python program to write text containing Unicode characters to a MySQL database. As an example, two of the characters are |u'\u2640' a symbol for Venus or female u'\u2642' a symbol for Mars or male | I use utf8mb4 for virtually all character sets involved with MySQL. Here is an excerpt from /etc/mysql/my.cnf |[client] default-character-set=utf8mb4 [mysql] default-character-set=utf8mb4 [mysqld] default-character-set=utf8mb4 character-set-server =utf8mb4 character_set_system =utf8mb4 | In addition, all tables are created with these parameters: |ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8mb4 COLLATE=utf8mb4_unicode_ci | In all respects except one, the treatment of Unicode works just fine. I can write Unicode to database tables, read it, display it, etc., with no problems. The exception is mysql, the MySQL Command-Line Tool. When I execute a SELECT statement to see rows in a table containing the Venus and Mars Unicode characters, here is what I see on the screen: || Venus | ♀ | | Mars | ♂ | | What I should see in the right column are the standard glyphs for Venus and Mars. Any ideas about how to get the MySQL Command-Line Tool to display Unicode properly? Edit: I have done a fair amount of research into the various MySQL system variables, etc., and I now realize that the my.cnf settings shown above have some serious issues. In fact, the server, mysqld, would not launch with the settings shown. To correct things, remove these from [mysqld]: |default-character-set=utf8mb4 character-set-system=utf8mb4 | I'm not sure that the [client] option does anything, but it doesn't seem to hurt. In Python u'\u2640' represents a single Unicode character, namely "♀". This compiles down to three bytes containing the hex value E29980. I am having no problems at all encoding and decoding Unicode. The correct values are being stored in a MySQL table; they are correctly read from the table, and when displayed by a Python program they show up like this: |♀ Venus ♂ Mars | The program output can be redirected to a file, processed by a text editor, etc., and in all cases the correct Unicode symbol is displayed. There is only one place where the correct Unicode symbol is not displayed, and that is when I am using the MySQL Command Line Tool. When I issue a SELECT statement on the table containing the Unicode symbols I get the junk shown above. This is not a Windows specific issue. I have exactly the same problem with the MySQL Command Line Tool when I run it on Windows, Mac OS X, and Ubuntu.

Multiple sql lines in command line tool
I am running the command line in two modes. In one I pipe to it in an application with arguments -s -n -N -r; and I can send multiple queries in one write to the mysql command line too. I then run mysql command tool in the linux shell with the same parameters and I cannot submit multiple queries on one line. I wonder what the catch is. I have gotten the embedded application running, instead of pipes. And I evidently lose the ability to submitt multiple sql statements. I wonder how I can obtain that capability back.

Yes, but the problem was in the listbox with auto-sort ;-) /Chris -Original Message- From: Paul DuBois [mailto:paul;snake.net] Sent: den 5 november 2002 00:20 To: Joseph Bueno; Christer Holmström (at Home) Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Problems with ORDER BY from C API (works from command-line tool mysql.exe) At 11:56 +0100 11/4/02, Joseph Bueno wrote: Christer Holmström (at Home) wrote: Hi!

Command Line Tool
I'm having a bit of a problem trying to get MySQL version 4.0.1-alpha-max-nt binary version to accept The Command - Line Tool to run a script to create a table. My operating system is Windows 2000 Professional. I can connect with MyODBC-3.51.02.exe without any problem and run successful queries. I am using the model example from chapter 4.8.2 The Command-line Tool. I am trying to create a table in the test database example in MySQL I am logged in correctly and using the test database that is created when MySQL is installed as best as I can tell by reviewing the command line mysql status. I am issuing the command line statement at the mysql prompt: mysql test create.sql; I get the following mysql error: ERROR 1064 You have an error in your SQL near 'mysql test create1.sql' at line 1 Basically, I have a script named create1.sql with the following syntax: CREATE TABLE Names ( NameID int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, FirstName varchar(30) NOT NULL default '', LastName varchar(30) NOT NULL default '', PRIMARY KEY (NameID), KEY idx_Names_LastFirst (LastName,FirstName) ) TYPE=MyISAM; INSERT INTO Names VALUES (1,'Morton','Salter'); INSERT INTO Names VALUES (2,'Jimi','Filmore'); INSERT INTO Names VALUES (3,'Eustace','Shoe'); INSERT INTO Names VALUES (4,'Archy','Roche'); INSERT INTO Names VALUES (5,'Catherine','LaGrande'); Anyone got any suggestions?

Re: Command Line Tool
Lenny, You might find it easier to use a GUI like MySQL Front from http://www.anse.de/mysqlfront/. It will save you a great deal of time. Just enter (or copy and paste) the SQL into their query window and press a button. Editing your errors are also a lot easier. It is free or you can make a $15 donation to the author if you like it.

How to get my shell readline settings in mysql command line tool?
Hello all, I use the bash shell and the vi editing mode (set -o vi) in my .inputrc. On one of my boxes, I managed to get the command line tool (mysql) to honour that setting. However, I have forgotten how I did that. Does anyone know how to do that? - Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Trouble unsubscribing?
